Today's Environmental Solution is Sealed Air's Yesterday's News(TM) Padded Mailer
SADDLE BROOK, N.J.

The padded mailer is the newest addition to Sealed Air's family of Jiffy® brand products for cost-effective, protective mailers for small parcel shipping.
The Yesterday's News(TM) padded mailer includes many environmentally responsible features that set it apart from traditional padded mailers. Recycled newspaper is used to create the mailer's inner protective batting, while the natural outer and inner kraft material is made from 100-percent recycled content and eliminates the need for dye used to create traditional gold color used for most mailers.
